@Zylesea

You had said (sorry, 3-level quotes limit... I have to re-arrange things), referring to the fact that today the Pegasos is the only available machine (which, BTW, is not true because the Pegasos is certainly not the only PPC platform around):
Quote:

This may change soon (2 weeks) or it may not. For the latter case the Peg would still be an alternative.

and I answered with:
Quote:

That's what you want to believe and what you (and others, with BB in first place) want to make us believe (in order to force AInc/Hyperion using the community as a lever, which is something I find really disgusting) by repeating it over and over again. Instead, the Pegasos is *not* an option. It stopped being an option a long time ago, and the chance has been missed forever.

Now you say:
Quote:

No this not what I believe it is the palin simple truth: there are exactly two options for teh future. Either we will see some new board or we will not. For the *latter* case, the Peg would still be an alternative. This is abolutely independent from what I think/whish/dream.

which is an attempt to dodge my remarks. I was obviously(*) answering to the second part ("For the latter case the Peg would still be an alternative"), whereas here, lacking any valid argument, you are focusing on "This may change soon (2 weeks) or it may not".
Poor attempt at diverting the attention.

(*)Should you not find it that obvious, here's a hint: "Instead, the Pegasos is *not* an option. It stopped being an option a long time ago, and the chance has been missed forever."

Quote: Can you live with it, please? It is not that hard, after all, especially considering that we're not talking about the most important thing in life and also that, as you say, "time has moved on and I gave up bothering about OS4 on the Peg long ago. Personally I was never intersted in it". But let's look at your statement closer: I was personally never intersted in OS4 *for myself*,

Wow. Some more cut-out magic - no, this is the first time you do it (with me, at least), but it's the third or fourth time that this has happened in a reply to me in this thread...

The whole passage was:

Personally I was never intersted in it". But let's look at your statement closer: Quote: But true, time has moved on and I gave up bothering about OS4 on the Peg long ago. Personally I was never intersted in it, but I thought one common hw would bridge the gap between OS4 and MOS a bit and the alltogether demand of MOS and OS4 fellows might become a sustainable mini market. So, assuming that "Personally I was never intersted in it" means "I've never been interested in AOS4 itself" (otherwise, literally you are saying that you used to be interested and that you have never been interested at the same time) and acknowledging that you don't believe in the "common hw" possibility anymore, can you tell me why on Earth you are wasting your time here on AW.net, in threads like this?

and it's more than evident that I had already conteplated your interpretation. The problem is that you did not answer at all to my question, but rather been happy to try to make it look like I did not understand you.

Quote:

nevertheless I was engaged in some OS4 benefiting attempts. You know why? Because I wanted to stabilize the amigaish ppc market (which includes MOS *and* OS4).

This is certainly a commendable effort, but still does not answer any of the points I raised.
